UTILITY SERVICES

UTILITY FACILITIES AVAILABLE:
                 For smooth functioning of any production unit, uninterrupted and required utility services are indispensable. Success of any industry largely depends on this factor. Any irregularity or lack in the required utility services immediately results in unexpected halt of the production process. An industry needs various utilities depending on its manufacturing process.
                In MONDOL FABRICS LTD. the major utilities are available-
·        Power
·        Water
·        Natural gas
·        Compressed air
·        Steam
·        ETP

SOURCES OF UTILITIES:
               The main utility, which is used by MONDOL FABRICS LTD. is natural gas. From natural gas generator produce electricity. From natural gas and electricity in association with mechanical and electrical apparatus, MONDOL FABRICS LTD. produces other utilities like water, steam and compressed air, ETP etc.

CAPACITY AND OTHER TECHNICAL DETAILS:
STEAM:
       Boiler is the indispensable component in textile industries. Boiler is of two types.
1. Fire tube boiler
2. Water tube boiler

According to mill perspective, capacity, skillness & investment costs boiler selection is carried out. MONDOL FABRICS LTD. uses three fire tube boilers to produce the required steam.
Water supply for the boiler:
Water required for steam production is supplied by deep tube well.

Pretreatment of the boiler water:
Boiler feed  water needs special standard. Any deviation from the required standard may result in scale formation, which eventually reduces the efficiency of the boiler. This ultimately affects the cost of steam generation and makes the production cost high. To protect scale formation of boiler, water hardness remover is used as chemical in water feed tank. 700gm is injected per 12hrs. In MONDOL FABRICS LTD., there are water softeners that act before the water enters the boiler.

Water hardness remover:
Product no. BW-661
Origin:Taiwan

Sequence of process in boiler:
 Water from reserve tank                                                                            
                                                                                   Cond.water
Treatment in softener tank

Feed tank                                                            Various plant(Dyeing,garments)


Water transfer to boiler                                      Distributor
(With the help of pump)

COMPRESSED AIR:
          Air compressor is used to supply compressed air to the required sections in the machineries of the mill. There are 4 air compressors in MONDOL FABRICS LTD. 

WATER:
The water source of MONDOL FABRICS LTD.  is deep tube well. The deep tube well is about 250 ft deep.

GAS:
The source of gas is government agency. Gas is required mainly for generation of electricity, boiler to produce steam, the burners of heat setting m/c. As MONDOL FABRICS LTD. generates their own electricity; the gas consumption is quite high.

EFFLUENT TREATMENT PLANT(ETP): 
This is the latest y\utility facilities of MONDOL FABRICS LTD. which is running before few days. This plant is urgent for every mill to protect our environment. ETP can also be defined as WWTP (Waste Water Treatment Plant).
Usually ETP plant may be of 3 types –
1.     Chemical method
2.     Bio- chemical method
3.     Biological method

Chemical used in ETP:
Biological method:
·        Biological method:
·        Urea
·        Chita gur
·        Cow dung
·        Dewatering polymer
·        TSP

Required tank:
1.     Equalization Tank
2.     Clarifier Tank
3.     PH Correction Tank
4.     Aeration Tank
